The battle for Donbas, for which Putin’s army is now preparing, can be truly large-scale. We are talking about the several-week perspective because the date of 9 May is very important for the dictator. He intends to celebrate the Victory Day with a military parade in Kyiv. Instead, a powerful counterattack is being prepared by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The capabilities of the Russian army are often exaggerated. In particular, instead of "high-precision ammunition", the invaders use unguided bombs and other “medieval” methods.
This opinion was expressed by Oleksiy Melnyk, Co-director of the Razumkov Centre’s Foreign Relations and International Security Programmes and military expert, in an exclusive interview with OBOZREVATEL.
